A Night of Faygo Within Big Sky Montana Country!

Article By Chad Thomas Carsten and Photo by Indi Reynoso Upon arriving in Butte, Montana locals in the area could immediately witness the Juggalos at peace with everyone! It was one big giant happy clown love family in the parking lot.

Lots were sipping on Faygo (Holy shit! Faygo all the way out near the mountains?! Yes!) and whoop whooping in positivity towards one another A sign of respect. Juggalos invited any outsider into their circle to play hacky sack, sing their favorite ICP songs with each other, and shared food to those who were hungry that didn't have the extra cash to eat, but their stomach was growling too loud to be ignored. Glorious thing to witness, indeed! The stage was near a junkyard and a saloon, but in the distance you could see the beautiful mountains almost piercing the stratosphere. It was like Detroit and Montana were side by side with the junkyard and the mountains in the same view with Juggalos all around so extremely excited to see Insane Clown Posse, that everyone that were near Butte could literally feel their positive energy floating all around the wilderness from the excitement level. There is absolutely no way someone could not be smiling ear to ear from all the uplifting Juggalo spirit soaring throughout the Montana air that day!

Washington states very own rapper "Illest Uminati", sure knows how to get a crowd fired up and ready to go buck wild all night long! The Juggalos immediately connected to his set and even chanted his stage name first song in, no joke! No garbage being thrown at this one! The energy Illest brought forth was straight up eye-popping on some Droopy D cartoon shit. The Washington rapper never stopped moving and his hyphy state of mind just kept the audience craving for more and more! Some ladies were practically drooling all over themselves. The alumni records peeps on stage with Illest were throwing tons of cd's in the air and people were rushing over frantically and tripping on each other just to get a Illest Uminati disc in their hands! This dude has conquered the true meaning of what it means to deliver a true outstanding hip-hop performance. If an Illest set can bring this type of rowdiness to kick things off, imagine Illest headlining his own tour? Crazy! Mr, Illest is destined for greatness no doubt, meaning that if Illest Uminati is in your area touring, be there!

Psychopathic Records elite artist Young Wicked straight up murdered the stage! He murdered it so hard that there were probably chalk lines of mass bodies surrounding the stage after his set! The Juggalos loved every second of Young Wicked's performance. Lots were nodding their heads and the die-hard fans sang a long to every word through out his entire set. This cat has skill. And that skill includes a nasty razor sharp chopper status flow that contains syllables so emotionally raw, it be like Jamie Lee Curtis splitting your body in two with an axe on prom night while your face is gasping in horror at all the heads and limbs scattered about. But instead it's the power of Young Wicked's microphone power that's chopping you into lyrical pieces with a musical axe! Hard work does pay off in the end and Young is in a league of his own. A must see live!

The Juggalos were starting to slowly become impatient, but the excitement level grew to a level beyond the stars. The anticipation level of not wanting to wait anymore was about to burst, like caps that belonged to over 200 bottles of Faygo that were somehow all shook up together for a month straight! That's how much the Juggalos couldn't wait to see they hero's the Insane Clown Posse take over the stage and become completely soaked in Faygo with them. The Duke of the Wicked (Violent 3) and The Southwest Strangla (Shaggy 2 Dope) finally emerged from behind a black curtain and people started screaming in pure joy in seconds at the sight of the wicked clowns immediately dominating the stage, during the opening of the Riddle Box. The joyful screams of the fans could probably be heard hundreds of miles down the road they were so loud and proud!

Through out the full set everybody sang a long. Unquestionably, every single person in the 38 VandalaMagazine.Com - July 2016
